RickR Posted September 1, 2016 Report Posted September 1, 2016 AWESOME! I have this cart via trade on this board! Nice choice. This will be fun.
RickR Posted September 5, 2016 Report Posted September 5, 2016 Houston, we have a problem! I can't get a score high enough to get on the high score board...thus...impossible to take a picture. You'll have to take my word for it...5650 is my top score so far. Dang this game is really hard.
RickR Posted September 5, 2016 Report Posted September 5, 2016 And by the way...the break dancer in this version looks like he's crapping his pants.
RickR Posted September 5, 2016 Report Posted September 5, 2016 13,000! That's me at the top. Was supposed to be "DAD", but I can't even do that right.
